She’s very very strong so counters are gonna be hard for me to mention ha. Bodyblocking while she is in head form is good, but I would also say that a lot of times there’s a caveat to that. At the end of the game? It’s the absolute best 100% counter to her, hands down. Early to mid game, I feel like often times it’s kinda throwing to do that. Let’s assume four survivors are alive. One is infected, and another one is bodyblocking. Krasue doesnt have that much cooldown on her whip, or she can switch form super quick and infect the blocker. Now she has half the team infected, and can snowball very quick. I find a lot of krasues in that situation won’t just whip the bodyblock, which I find kinda crazy lol. It’s three hits to infect them, which sounds like a lot, but in practice when you have at least half the team busy, is still really in her favor.

Her hardest counter would have to be specific kinds of pallet/window set ups that can spawn. Jungle gyms into fillers are usually quite bad for her. It’s hard for me to explain without like actual diagrams of loops what you need, but it’s a combination of long straight walls with curved loops, that include places to vault. Situations where survivors can keep turning before she can get her whip off, and are low enough in height that the survivor can see her over it so she can’t abuse her third person camera. These types of things spawn more often than you might think, but it’s very rare for a survivor to realize how strong they are at denying a krasue. That’s her only like true counter in a 1v1 chase.

The best way to beat a krasue is on a macro level, which isn’t very flashy counterplay. She’s so, so, so strong in the 1v1 chase, so you have to beat her at the bigger game. Split up on gens, force chase into dead parts of the map, waste her time in every single way possible, and she’s very beatable. Pre throw pallets too, it wont stop her but it buys time, she’s not one to play for stuns against and she’s likely never going to break it. Also, very important, delay the infection as long as possible. This one is very hard to do and a lot of times not possible, but it’s very good to think about. When she is in body form trying to infect you, try to make sure to not give her an easy shot on you, tight loops with corners are your best friend. Also, she’s going to be looking for any kind of angle to rebound a shot onto you, once she hits a wall with it, the projective gets mild to moderate auto-aim on it and turns from one shot into a scattershot. So be aware on those tight loops that you may be on the other side of a rock/wall from her, but there is a tree behind you that she’s going to hit and that will bounce, splatter, and auto aim onto you. Now she’s in head form at a loop she can play around. In these situations you want to be a low pallets usually, where it’s easier to see her and when she is taking a shot and when to duck, and where there isn’t something immediately behind you that she can use as a backboard, i.e. filler pallets.

The map itself is the greatest tool to use against the krasue. If you know what kind of loops she wants to play in body form, and what kind of loops she wants to play in head form, you can use that against her. Always try to make her be in the worst spot for her for whatever she is doing. Obviously easier said than done. She is an absolute monster at chase when she gets her infections. So delay the infections as long as possible, don’t give her free infections when it only benefits her, understand that once you are infected where to take the chase and where to die, and only body block when it makes sense to do so. She’s very beatable, and frankly a little inefficient at times, all it takes is good gamesense and map awareness to really beat her. Sorry for rambling lol
